    A contribution to PLENK2010 from Alan Levine's CogDogBlog in which Alan wonders if his experience in using the informal setting of the Flickr 366 photographs group and Daily shoot has helped him learn to be a better photographer. Presents a review of an article from Hacker Monthly which introduces the notion of an "eigencourse": I'll need to seek that out!

    I left the following comment on Alan's post -- "According to Google The prefix eigen is the German word for innate, distinct, self (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eigen). In this context, the latter meaning might be most appropriate: an eigencourse is the presumably a "self course" or possibly an autodidactic course. It could also mean a self-tailored course as well I suppose." I know eigen from the linear matrix algebra concepts of eigenvectors and eigenvalues where the prefix means "distinct" or "characteristic@".
